today at MICHIGAN ADVENTURES......
Click "PLAY" to take a peek at our adventure today..... at Michigan Adventure! Grandma, Aunt Nenna, Marisa and Aunt Kim helped chaparone 4th and 5th graders from Kayela and Kelsey's class....the crossing guards and the student council to be exact! We were glad that Kayela had been elected Vice-President and Kelsey, Secretary of the Student Council so we could go back again to Michigan Adventure for another fun day! This year, Aunt Nenna and Marisa joined us. So...sit back, as we share our day with you!

a BIG craft show setup...

I put together a sample of pictures taken just before a BIG show setup! It takes me about 2+ hours to get it to this point. There are actually two more tables in the center...NOT in the photos!!

armory craft show....

First little show of the year...held at the Armory on Saturday. I say "little"...any time I can get it all in ONE van...it's little! I didn't get a picture of my display with the purses, though...and also had a few adult embroidered sweatshirts with me as well. The lady next to me didn't show up, so I was able to spread out into her spot just as the show was starting. For a Spring show, it was quite typical...slow...but still made some money, got to show off my new items and chat with customers that I hadn't seen over the winter! Plus...it got me motivated and organized for my Farmers Market that I will start in two weeks...yippee! Now I have time to get my yard in better shape and be outside until the markets start up....oh yes, and to get some things listed on ebay, too!
